[Bug 1805203] Re: libcurl3-gnutls in cosmic breaks git with Azure DevOps

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Mark, or anyone else affected,

Accepted curl into cosmic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/curl/7.61.0-1ubuntu2.5
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-cosmic to verification-done-cosmic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-cosmic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: curl (Ubuntu Cosmic)
       Status: New => Fix Committed

Title:
  libcurl3-gnutls in cosmic breaks git with Azure DevOps

Status in curl package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in curl source package in Cosmic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  * Impact
  Git auth fails when trying to work with an Azure DevOps repository 

  * Test case
  Try to git clone from an Azure DevOps repository using a Personal Access Token
  The clone should work and not fail on an authentification error

  *  Regression potential
  The diff is in the curl http code, it would be good to test a few rdepends to make sure they have no regression

  --------------------------------------------

  The version of libcurl3-gnutls in cosmic (7.61.0) causes
  authentication failures with Azure DevOps. This causes all git
  operations with the server to fail (eg clone, push, pull). For details
  see this curl bug: https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/2754

  To work around this I downgraded libcurl3-gnutls to the version in
  bionic (7.58.0)

  From the curl change list https://curl.haxx.se/changes.html#7_61_1,
  this issue should be fixed in package version 7.61.1 or above.

  Request: please upgrade package in cosmic for libcurl3-gnutls to
  7.61.1 or above

  Details:
  1 - Ubuntu 18.10
  2 - libcurl3-gnutls (7.61.0-1ubuntu2.2 and others)
  3 - Be able to git clone from an Azure DevOps repository using a Personal Access Token
  4 - git operations fail to authenticate

  Thank you,
  Mark
